These rooftops were built by Anthoni Gaudi in the early 20th century. These gatehouses were meant to be the entrance to a secluded community of Barcelona. When money ran out in the 20's, the City of Barcelona took ownership and decided to make it a municipal park for the public. These gatehouses today are used for a museum and gift shop. Once purchasing something, be sure to check the reverse side and see if this design is on the back.
